BTDT How did you feel?

If you still felt terrible when you hit 15 weeks did the nausea and exhaustion ever go away for you?

I can keep my food down but I have so many food aversions, I am constantly queasy and sick to my stomach, I get horrible gas pains that makes me feel like I'm being stabbed in the chest and back until I burp or pass gass and when I eat later in the day I feel so full that it gives me heartburn/indigestion. I'm exhausted all of the time, the kind of tired where your whole body is tired and your limbs feel heavy.

I always thought I'd have an easy pregnancy because I have always been in shape, ate right and was active but so far it hasn't been easy at all! All of my pregnancy books say these feeling should have passed by now. My doctor said maybe in the next few weeks.

I'm not complaining, I'll take it, but I was hoping that I'd feel like a new woman once I hit the second trimester Chat Icon Is there still hope?

i don't have advice but i just wanted to say that i feel the same. i'm turning 13 wks tomorrow and i'm still throwing up, dry heaving and nauseous around the clock. B6, seabands, ginger, peppermint tea.... nothing works Chat Icon was really looking forward to that magic 2nd trimester too....

I didn't feel human until just after I hit the 15 week mark. There is still hope and as a BTDT Mom I can promise you it's all worth it!

Oh boy- I am only at week 7 and I am having super awful around the clock sickness.Nausea and horrific gas pains that wake me up at night... Guessing that this will be staying for at least the next 6 to 7 weeks? Although I guess everyone is diff so there is really no way to tell for sure.

I just keep reminding myself that means that the pregnancy is viable and my hormone levels are up! Chat Icon It will all be worth it!!

I only just got my appetite back at 16 + weeks. One day I looked at food and wanted it. I even eat eggs and bacon again.
Hope you feel better soon.Chat Icon

Re: BTDT How did you feel?

There's still hope!! I threw up EVERY SINGLE day until like 18 weeks...Then it was here or there...by 20 weeks I was feeling MUCH better. The morning sickness was finally gone, and I have never enjoyed food as much as I do now!!! So there is hope. I hope it gets better for you. I know how horrible it is...I was expecting to throw up every day for 9 months! I was so relieved when it stopped :)
